- Comment on Whoa! Windows 7's market share surged, tripling in users last month 3 weeks ago:
A friend of mine was still on win7 and just recently made the switch to linux. In the end the issue was that most of the software stopped working.
- Comment on Finally got a Gensis (Megadrive) after years of wanting one! 4 weeks ago:
If you like shooters, thundeforce 4 is insane, graphics and sound wise. Wonderboy in monsterland is also a must have if you like metroidvania games.
- Comment on Can someone find a redeeming factor about this game? Like anything good about it. 4 weeks ago:
I played the c64 version as a kid and mostly remember the laugh sample in the intro and the good music. The game was fun because i liked Ghostbusters, but mostly had no clue what i was doing or had to do.
- Comment on What even is money at this point 4 weeks ago:
Finally somone who understands how to approximate how cheap stuff actually is. My recent rage was about starbucks, my girlfriend likes the chai latte there and we went for a cappuccino and chai latte. It was my first time there. The prices are INSANE and the place was stuffed with people. My cappuccino cost something about 6€ the chailatte even more.
Some week later i realized that the chailatte there is probably not even a real brewed tea. We found chai latte sirup of the company monin that tastes exactly like the McDonalds version of chai latte. So Starbucks is selling hot milk with a shot of sirup for >6€. Its crazy!

The saddest part is, we thought crypto was the biggest waste of energy ever and then the LLMs entered the chat.
- Comment on Is Germany on the Brink of Banning Ad Blockers? User Freedom, Privacy, and Security Is At Risk. 2 months ago:
What’s not mentioned here is that the overall thing started because adblock plus is a addon by a company that is making money by selling it. This is not about ublock origin.

Subjectivr experience against another. I switched an peer group from skype to matrix when matrix went offline. It was way better than i would have expected. Perhaps the timing was better. The element client seems really good, beside some minor jank(like screen share doesn’t work) that was probably waylands fault, its a very good experience.

- Comment on Windows 11 users reportedly losing data due to Microsoft's forcedWindows 11 users reportedly losing data due to Microsoft's forced BitLocker encryption 5 months ago:
I read the article but am not smarter than before. I heard some time ago that windows does encrypt the drive but you need an active online account and the key will be saved online. So do people forget their online passwords and methods to recover that said account? I dont like m$ and am using linux, but people loosing their passwords, being uninformed about their systems and dont so backups is not the direct fault of the operating system.
- Comment on Consumers make their voices heard as Microsoft's huge venture flatlines in popularity 5 months ago:
Still wonder to this day why microsoft, with all their experience with the xbox, that they never made windows be able to behave like a konsole. I have an gaming pc at my tv and the times that some random popup or program suddenly has Focus is way to high. You still need a fucking keyboars. At least my main computer is Linux <3
